FunctionPublication Abstract from PubMedDinuclear monooxygenases mediate challenging C-H bond oxidation reactions throughout nature. Many of these enzymes are presumed to exclusively utilize diiron cofactors. Herein we report the bioinformatic discovery of an orphan dinuclear monooxygenase that preferentially utilizes a heterobimetallic manganese-iron (Mn/Fe) cofactor to mediate an O(2)-dependent C-H bond hydroxylation reaction. Unlike the structurally similar Mn/Fe-dependent monooxygenase AibH2, the diiron form of this enzyme (SfbO) exhibits a nascent enzymatic activity. This behavior raises the possibility that many other dinuclear monooxygenases may be endowed with the capacity to harness cofactors with a variable metal content.
